International Conference on the Arts in Society – Call for Papers

The International Conference on the Arts in Society is pleased to
announce its 3rd annual Conference, to be held at the Birmingham
Institute of Art and Design, UK, 28-31 July 2008.

This year’s Arts Conference will feature arts educators, artists,
practitioners, researchers and theorists in all forms of disciplinary
practice through paper presentations, workshops and colloquia.
Submissions are invited for papers, workshops and alternative
presentation formats for consideration in the Conference program.
Presenters may choose to submit written papers for publication in the
fully refereed International Journal of the Arts in Society. If you are
unable to attend the Conference in person, virtual registrations are
also available which allow you to submit a paper for refereeing and
possible publication in this fully refereed academic Journal, as well as
access to the electronic version of Journal. While submissions in all
areas of the arts will be considered, we especially welcome
presentations in keeping with this year’s conference theme: Art and
Communication.

The deadline for the next round in the call for papers (a title and
short abstract) is 14 February 2008. Proposals are reviewed within three
weeks of submission.

Full details of the Conference, including an online proposal submission
form, are to be found at the Conference website –

Yours Sincerely,

Prof. Mario Minichiello
